  • DamianM Damian Maclennan (@DamianM) reported

    He did the right thing, he went and found an email address on the main Optus website, and TOLD THEM they had an unsecured server with customer information on it.

  • DamianM Damian Maclennan (@DamianM) reported

    This is Optus we’re talking about here, they’ve never been good at security, and always good at blaming somebody else for “sophisticated attacks” on unsecured systems.

    @7NewsMelbourne @Optus Weird choice of photo to use... Was someone going down on her at the presser?

  • BenatarSeaOrg good engrams (@BenatarSeaOrg) reported

    optus put my birthdate down wrong sixteen years ago and as a result were never able to accept my legal name change in 2009 and so could never accept any change of address and therefore won’t let “me” port my number away — please use my fake optus identity however you like! i do

  • TrueBlueAussi19 TrueBlueAussie (@TrueBlueAussi19) reported

    While I’m glad I’m not with Optus, my own ISP went down at 10pm last night. No mobile reception where I live either. Finally back online almost 24 hours later.

    @manjusrii This is devastating for @Optus and so far they have done everything we want - they have owned the problem, notified customers and tried to minimise the scam damages. Compare that to the Government with the census, mygov, covid apps and whatever else crashes - always excuses

  • DamianM Damian Maclennan (@DamianM) reported

    He was very lucky, his mum was a bit of a kickarse lawyer, and all charges were dropped. But I’ve never seen anything since that has changed my mind on how Optus manage their systems (and I tend to know these sorts of things).

  • Pezzamystic1 Pez (@Pezzamystic1) reported

    @R_Chirgwin I think @Optus should stop selling products online and over the phone during this time. Sales and upgrades of products should be done instore only with photo ID to help prevent fraud @kbrspace

  • 413AD8E57843 sʇɥƃnoɥ⊥ʞɹɐ◖ (@413AD8E57843) reported

    @prestonsoft @patrickkeneally Seems very unlikely - history would suggest this normally takes time, and often never happens. Is there any evidence? Is there any anecdotal experience that couldn’t reasonably be explained by other data breaches? Optus doesn’t need my defence, but we need facts, not emoting.

    @axelated I left optus a year ago because there entire service was rubbish, this just tops the cake.
